After extensive excavation, a total of 972 remarkably preserved scrolls were found, including the earliest Biblical texts ever discovered. Now known as the Dead Sea Scrolls, they have been called the most significant archaeological find of the last century.

    With 3 weeks to go before the 6th Jesus Longboard Classic in Polzeath, North Cornwall, expectations are high after the success of previous years. The event will be held at its traditional venue over the weekend of 6th – 7th October, using the ‘Tubestation’ as its contest base.


    It’s a great contest for both those who have not entered a competition before and those seasoned contest surfers. The Jesus Longboard Classic has a well deserved reputation for its friendly atmosphere and relaxed vibe, as well as the later rounds being highly competitive.


    This year the event will precede the revised date for the Jesus surf classic to be held at Croyde on 13th – 14th October, so it looks like being a very busy 10 days or so for all the volunteers. Organisers Christian Surfers UK are very pleased to be continuing their partnering with ‘Nineplus’, ‘Tubestation’ and ‘360 photography’ to bring you the 2012 Jesus Longboard Classic, but also welcome new partners ‘Finisterre’ clothing and ‘Treleavens i
